He plans to play at 218 and thinks he performs better while carrying a little more weight on his 6-foot-2 frame.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne is back to full speed and cleared to do anything and everything after a foot injury ended his rookie season before it even began. The 25th overall pick in the 2021 draft could be a huge addition to an offense that needs more playmakers. The Jags committed $105 million in free agency to add pass catchers Christian Kirk, Zay Jones and Evan Engram. Etienne is a somewhat forgotten piece, another option for his former college teammate, quarterback Trevor Lawrence. Lawrence says "everybody's been anxious for him to get back, including myself.
